Description
Describe the bug
- U+25C8 (White Diamond Containing Black Small Diamond) is missing.
- U+25C9 (Fisheye) is weird in Libertinus Serif Bold, with an offset central dot and a bigger size.
- The shapes of several of these characters are inconsistent in the Serif Italic / Sans Italic fonts.
Expected vs. actual behavior
- The three diamonds (U+25C6, U+25C7, U+25C8) are sometimes used in dictionaries, for instance, to denote synonyms, antonyms or related words. They are very simple shapes, so there's no reason for not having U+25C8 (see below)
- U+25C9 in Libertinus Serif Bold should have the central circle properly centered
- On italic vs. non-italic, I don't know what would be expected for these shapes, but see screenshot below, it's not consistent currently, and not very logical

It would look quite correct...
For the other characters, see below:
- U+25C9 is weird in Libertinus Serif Bold, as mentioned
- For other characters in the Italic styles, they are sometimes slanted, sometimes not.
